This is a Batsuit that I commissioned Giorgio Viola to do for me for $150.00 US Dollars. He is on ArtStation (https://www.artstation.com/ramiel), Instagram (https://www.instagram.com/giorgio_viola_art/), and Twitter (https://www.deviantart.com/users/outgoing?https://twitter.com/giorgioviola0). Here is the info for the artwork that he told me about: It will be a hi-res JPG file, quite large, 23"x16" (or 59cm x 42cm) black and white, pencil-like, ready to print. I was thinking about a realistic, practical and fully functional Batsuit drawing. Grounded in reality and like a design poster.

A batsuit, designed it to be an advanced model too. The lines are just graphics, the idea was to simulate a height chart, but the artist didn't use any reference or scale, so it's just pretending. It is almost entirely original, of course, the scalloped cape and the general idea of the suit is based on the iconic look of the character, but nothing specific, so I would say it is 98% original (even if maybe the lines of the cowl, resemble the cowl of the Nolan movies a bit, but it wasn't intentional). The artist came up with the deep hearing system via imagination. How does the quick release cape fastener work: "You lift the buckle/lever on the collar armor (there is one on both sides as you can see) and the cape is released. That's it. A quick release." Is there anything special about the soles of the boot: "The soles should be reinforced (small metal plates in them) to avoid being punctured from the bottom (by purpose or by accident, like stepping on a nail or shard)." The deep hearing system is a mix of different technologies; it is part an audio receiver for telecommunication (or spying, via audio bugs) and part audio enhancer, to hear people talking even at great distance, and it is hidden (embedded) into the ears of the cowl. That's the idea. The cowl can be removed and put on unlocking the interlocking mechanism that joins the "jaw" piece to the main helmet (so you can slide it up). The artist would mainly use various shades of dark gray for most of the suit, with black cowl, gauntlets, and gloves, cape and shin guards and boots. With a mix of satin and matte finishes. With some metal details, like rivets, d-rings and strap rings left in metal color, but it is up to me. The suit the artist made is a pretty decent thought concept.

A print-ready blueprint illustration, that looks like a detailed pencil work, with call-outs of a custom designed, original batsuit with the same characteristics as before (a little bit inspired by comics and movies, but mostly original, and most important, functional). Detailed pencil blueprint/design of a batsuit.

From the Artist: To sum your commission request it would have been something like: An original batsuit design presented as a blueprint project, that could work in the real world and looks technically accurate and believable with callouts specs that I could print in a large format.

"Should it look like more like a Batfleck suit or a Bale suit?" Neither, make it look original in other words make it look as original as possible.

"Long ears or short ears?" A mixture like neither short and not long either.

"Should have inspirations from a comic look (new 52, rebirth, classic, etc) or totally original (as possible)?" Totally original.

"Fin blades on the gauntlet or no fins?" Fin blade so he could block, disarm and break blades.

"Long boots (knee length) or short boots (ankle length)?" Something that is practical so maybe a mixture but enough to protect and defend his legs from hitting the shin and to protect debris maybe padding.

"Eyes visible or no eyes (white-out lenses or something else)?" Whiteout lenses make and/or describe it as realistic to make it look comic like.

"Cape length?" No tripping and stunt length, describe it as and/or draw it as where if you pull hard enough or try to choke him or blind him he can unclip it.
